Both contestants have stated they post their own write-ups.

1 hour prep before fight:

First 20 minutes: I start off by fortifying my magical defenses chanting druidic spells to help protect me against longpig's character. Simultaneously gathering ambient magical energy, and storing it in my nega bands.

Second 20 minutes: I start gathering energy from my surroundings. Cosmic energy, solar energy, ionic energy, and electromagnetic energy storing them in the nega bands. Though not an expert at using his nega bands, he can fire sufficient amounts of energy blasts that will hurt longpig's character a great deal. He also puts some of that energy to strengthen his energy shield, supplementing his already tough hide.

Third 20 minutes: I infuse the energy in my nega bands and combine the energies so each blast will contain a little bit of each different type of energy. I put up mental blocks using my telepathy to protect my mind from telepathic assaults, and then chants a druidic spell within the last few minutes to help increase his reaction times to compete with the speed of longpig's character.

Battle strategy 1: I start off by creating hundreds of illusions of me, via telepathy blinding and confusing longpig's character. Now I launch my speed attack, and I'll fly straight for longpig's character while he's distracted and encase my fist with energy from the nega bands, and land a solid punch to longpig character's face. I'm using my mind, and Druid is a powerful telepath.

Battle strategy 2: If he survives that or he counters by saying that he has some sort of magical shield up, consider that shield broken now, and longpig's character is in a lot of pain. Pain that slows his his speed and reaction times. Pain that keeps him from concentrating as well. If he counters by saying my fist would have been absorbed, which is logical since he has Absorbing Man's body, and my fist gets absorbed, even though not an expert at using the nega bands, I channel a great deal of my combined energies into his body, thus his body will absorb to much energy and therefore explode and dissapate into the atmosphere.

Limitations: There are undefined limits to the amount of power that the Absorbing Man can absorb. He met his first defeat when he exploded upon attempting to absorb the power of the entire planet Earth.

If the Absorbing Man's body is broken or dispersed somehow when he is in nonhuman state, his sentience is capable of reassembling himself over a period of time end returning himself to human form.

Yeah he might reform his body, but it can sometimes take a while to do so, and his character being out of the match for a few minutes is a KO.

Battle strategy 3: If he bring some kind of iron or uses his absorbing powers to mimic iron, thus greatly affecting my magical abilities, I can still rely on the other powers I have. The nega bands with the stored in the nega bands ex: Cosmic, solar, ionic, and electro-magnetic energy. I enormous strength, a nearly invulnerable hide and a energy shield boosting my resilience, xray and heat vision, and my telepathic powers. I can still stomp him with these powers.

Battle strategy 4 Part 1: I will try and counter every magical spell he has at his dispisal. Strange is the one I fear most so this is a list of almost all the spells he has and my counters for them:

Amulet of Agamotto

* Doc's first, original amulet, given to him by the Ancient One. It is the predecessor to the Eye of Agamotto.
* First appearance: ST #110 (Doc's first appearance). Referred to as Amulet of Agamotto in DSSS #56.
* Doc was awarded the Eye of Agamotto by the Ancient One after defeating Dormammu in ST #127.
* After awarding Doc the Eye, the Ancient One gave the first Amulet back to Agamotto [DSSS #32].
* Silver Dagger stole the Amulet (or "early-model Eye"😉 from Agamotto (or more accurately, Agamotto let him take it) and used it in his empty left eye socket for a time [DSSS #32].
* Doc eventually awarded this Amulet to his apprentice Rintrah [DSSS Annual #2].
* The Amulet's powers are virtually identical to the Eye's.

Astral Form

* Doc is able to enter a trance (rather quickly) and leave his physical body for a ghostly astral form. The astral form has no physical substance, can pass through walls, and is invisible to the non-mystical (except for the Hulk). The physical body is stationary and helpless during this time. There is no connection to the physical body- if it is moved without the mystic's knowledge while away in astral form, the mystic must search for it [ST #121]. If the astral form does not return to the body within 24 hours, the body dies and the mystic is helplessly trapped in astral form until it slowly dissipates [ST #121]. A mystic is weaker in raw power in his astral form than he is in his physical body.
* First appearance: ST #110.
* Intense atomic energy, like at the core of a star, "can bring about a chemical change which could prove fatal to a spirit form" [ST #134].
* The astral form can be used to take possession of another body [DS #80].

Bolts of Balthakk

* Standard energy blast [DS #32].
* Apparently used to break up a large melee by teleporting each group to opposite sides of a room (spelled Balthaak here) [Def V2 #8].

Bolts of Bedevilment

* Standard energy blast.

Book of the Vishanti

* First appearance: ST #116. "I possess the only known copy of the Book of the Vishanti! Every counter-spell known to the mystic arts is inscribed within these time-worn pages!"
* Can be enlarged to envelop a target, sending them into "the endless dimensions of the Vishanti" and "the hidden landscapes of your mind" [DS #33].

Clamp of Containment

* Summons and shapes rock from the ground beneath a target, trapping the lower body and hands at the waist. The target is unable to cast spells. Used on Doc by Cyrus Black [DS #34].

Cloak of Levitation

* Red with yellow trim and distinctive cowl, the Cloak allows Doc to fly with little effort or drain to his personal mystic energies.
* Doc can mentally command, move and control the Cloak. He has used it to envelop enemies.

Crimson Bands of Cytorrak

* Large red glowing ribbons usually used to wrap and capture or imprison a target.
* Can be sent out en masse to search for a specific target. Dormammu looked for Doc this way [DSSS #1].
* In What If? V2 #52, What If Dr. Doom Became Sorcerer Supreme?, Dormammu used the Crimson Bands to seal the Baxter Building.
* Can be used for feats of strength. Doc used them to break out of a Clamp of Containment [DS #34].
* The Bands can be used to lasso someone out of a crowd [X-Men Annual #4].
* The Bands have also appeared as a large imprisoning crystal that shrinks [ST #128].

Crimson Crystals of Cytorrak

* Summons what appear to be small rubies that are used as an energy blast [MP #5].
* Doc used them to imprison, shrink and cast away a Vipers of Valtorr spell cast against him [DS #34].

Darkhold, The

* A powerful book, of parchments written by the Chthon, Elder God of Chaos, containing his arcance and demonic secrets, collected and bound by the evil sorceress Morgan Le Fey [DSSS #11].

Demons of Denak

* Summons what mainfests as numerous invisible claws, used for attack or to rip suitable objects apart [I forget?].
* A common Doc exclamation.

Dreamwalking

* Doc can enter the dreams of others [ST #110].
* Doc: "My first lessons were in dreamwalking..." [ASM V2 #47].

Eye of Agamotto

* Dr. Strange's most powerful and precious item. Very similar to its predecessor the Amulet of Agamotto.
* The Ancient One can activate the Amulet's powers remotely [ST #110].
* The Amulet/Eye can send out a hypnotic, immobilizing ray of blinding light [ST #110].
* The powers of the Amulet/Eye are available to Doctor Strange while he is astral form. An astral form of the Amulet/Eye travels with Doc's astral form. The Amulet/Eye's physical form remains with Doc's physical body, and that can also be activated by Doc while in astral form. This seems to make the Amulet/Eye an incredibly powerful and useful item. No other item has been shown to do this [ST #110].
* It can be used to communicate with others and transmit thoughts over long distances [ST #110].
* Doc uses it on several occasions to transmit strength/health to the Ancient One [ST #111].
* Its light can be used to detect normally-invisible mystical auras, effects, etc. [ST #116].
* Its light can dissolve illusions. "Nothing evil can bask in its glow for long!" [ST #116].
* It can be used to completely read another's mind [ST #118].
* It can unlock door bolts ("no mere man-made lock can resist the power of my enchanted amulet"😉 [ST #120].
* It can play back recent past events in an area (because "light waves never completely disappear"😉 [ST #121].

Flames of the Faltine

* Standard energy blast. The Flames are usually green.
* Used to melt the Icy Tendrils of Ikthalon [DS #33].

Flames of Regency

* The flames around Dormammu's head have been explained as a kind of fiery crown signifying the leader of the Dark Dimension. When Clea was leader of the Dark Dimension, she was shown with flames behind her head (but her head wasn't engulfed in the fire as Dormammu's was). However, other Faltinians who had nothing to do with control of the Dark Dimension have been shown to look like little Dormammus with flaming heads.
* While Clea was leader of the Dark Dimension, she said that the flames of regency whispered tyrannical, urge-for-power type thoughts to her that she had to resist [Marvel Comics Presents #20].

Fungol Thopa

* "The Curses and Fiends of Fungol Thopa." Used by Sligguth against Dr. Strange with the incantation "K'Thaka Fungoi!" Manifests a foul fungus on the target which drains life from the pores [MP #5].

Hypnotism

* Doctor Strange possesses the standard ability to powerfully and instantly hypnotize others, plant suggestions, forget their past or that they ever met Doc, etc.

Icy Tendrils of Ikthalon

* Entraps the target in a freezing coating of ice [DS #33].

Images of Ikonn

* Doc freaks out Galactus(!) with this spell: "I reached into the darkest corners of his mind to confront Galactus with the ghosts of all he has slain." [Fantastic Four #243]

Martial Arts

* Doc's mystical training with the Ancient One included full martial arts training. He has no problem letting the occasional karate chop fly.
* Doc has dodged a kung fu chop by Mantis, something "only three others have ever done" [Defenders V1 #9].

Mist of Hoggoth- see Spell of Hoggoth
Mists of Morpheus

* Standard sleep spell [Def V2 #8].

Mists of Munnopor

* Summons a bluish gas which covers the face of the opponent and suffocates him [DS #34].

Multiple Body Illusion

* Several illusions of Doctor Strange surge forth; enemies don't know which is the real one, if any of them are.
* In what appears to be a huge power boost to this ability, Doc can give each illusory figure the power to hypnotize people [ST #131].
* Appearances: ST #123 (first, against Loki), ST #130-131, DS #70.

Orb of Agamotto

* Doctor Strange's "crystal ball."
* Originally portrayed as a globe of the Earth- the work of evil mystical forces appeared as dark spots, revealing their location on Earth and their intensity to Doc.

Purple Gem

* The gem provides a means to enter (or become trapped in) the Purple Dimension led by the slaver Aggamon [ST #119] [DS #56].
* Used to amplify and focus the Eye of Agamotto's power; the incantation included "Heightened by Aggamon's distant might" [DS #33].
* Used to entrap an opponent; the target appeared to be more like eaten by the gem itself rather than transported to the Purple Dimension [DS #33].

Rains of Raggadorr

* Summons a small thunderstorm. The Rains washed away Fungol Thopa, while accompanying lightning struck at multiple evil targets [MP #5].

Ring, Unnamed ("Astral Form Power"😉

* The Ancient One gave Doc a ring which allows him to do everything in astral form that he can in real-life form [ST #117].

Rings of Raggadorr
Sanctum Sanctorum
Screaming Idol

* An ancient idol of Tiboro, leader of the Sixth Dimension. The object allows Tiboro to influence and capture people on Earth, and provides travel between Earth and the Sixth Dimension.
* Go to the excellent Tiboro page at The Marvel Universe Appendix.

(Light of the) Seven Suns of Cinnibus

* A powerful energy blast described as a scorching, all-consuming brilliance [DS #34].

Shackles of Sheol

* Magenta bands which enwrap a being's legs and cross at the chest, used to trap and transport an opponent. Used against Doc by Mephista [DSSS #30].

Shield of the Seraphim

* Standard protection spell. Shown as a shimmering globe around Dr. Strange.

"Sleep Protection Chant"

Spell of Forgetfulness

Telekinesis
Telepathy
Teleportation & Transportation
Time Manipulation

Vapors of Valtorr

* First appearance: ST #115. Mordo attacks the Ancient One with them in Doc's first origin story.
* Summons a dark cloud that can surround and imprison an opponent [ST #125].
* Summons a dark ominous cloud, with accompanying lightning striking at several enemy targets [MP #5]. Similar to the Rains of Raggadorr.

* A common Doc exclamation.

Winds of Watoomb

During prep.
I test my new body for any weakness and all strengths.

I fiddle with my new body(heehehe) and find that I can turn myself nearly invulnerable by absorbing into my Ball and chain, i also find out that my strength is been amplified to 100 level strength.

As Dr. Strange i have many mental powers, I can mesmerize and i have great if not 100% resistance to telepathy using the eye of agamotto I aslo can use the Eye to read others mind as well as see through illusions cast by other magic.

I also test my new body's speed, which seems to be able to go lightspeed.

I put up a forcefield over me that has taken punches by Hulk and cosmic blast's from SS with no ill effect.
I wait for the bell to ring.

Battle:
First off you are using Druid's mind and powers, Druid is clinically insane, his magic has done this to him making it nearly impossible for him to make rational decisions.

Anything Druid can do Dr Strange can and has done better, in Druids own bio he is called a weaker watered down version of Strange.

When we first see each other, I already have my shield up that has taken hits from Hulk and blasts by Surfer, you aren't getting past it.

I then absorb myself into my iron ball and chain, seeing that Druid's powers are immensly impared by iron, me turning into pure iron is basically making any of Druid's already irrational thoughts and magic simply inaffective. The eye of Agamotta on my forehead will see through all illusions cast by Druid.

I simply move as fast as i can which is light speed and wrap you in the unbreakable bands of cyttorak that galactus himself cannot break.
Incapacitation affords me the win.

Dude, I'm not reading all that.
paraphrase.

...some detailed prep there Sentry. Nice job. I'm nowhere near a decision yet for my vote, but the level of detail you employed was impressive.

-DM

"He won't be able to use this power because that would mean he'd have to leave his body somewhere unprotected. All I have to do is destroy earth or whatever planet I'm on, and he dies. But I'm pretty sure that's against the rules in both our parts. He physically has to be there, and I'm not allowed to destroy our earth. I can still harm him in astral form with a great deal of heat, and solar energy from my nega bands should do the trick. I could also supplement my solar energy blast with blasts from my heat vision."

First off I'm not going to use astral form, I'm going to use the Eye to see past your illusions. Also, you're not allowed to destroy the arena.

""Okay one of the few objects I'm worried about. If he does somehow capture me, I will infuse my energy stored in my nega bands and expel them violently sending tremendous amounts of energy through the Bands causing a explosion, simultaneously using my strength to help break out of the Bands. Feats of strength? No hay he's as strong as my character. With Absorbing man's powers, he could increase his strength to levels that are near mine, not surpass it. What is he gonna do? punch me? I'm probably not goiing to feel it as much. If he grabs hols of me, I'll overload him with energies from the nega bands, and bomm, dissapates into the atmosphere. Energy blasts? Not going to affect me. I'll absorb it. Shrinking me? Imprisoning me in a mystical crystal? See above what I would with the nega bands. If he does shrink me, I'm gonna be that much harder to hit.""

If Galactus can't break free of the bands you can't.

""I'm not evil, so it's glow won't affect me.""
Yes, Druid is evil, and the glow would kill you.

""Hypnotize me? I'm a telepath and I to am a hypnotist. Won't work so well on me.""
True, but no where near the master of hypnotism as Dr Strange.

Multiple Body Illusion:
"I have this power too, won't affect me as much. I'll do the same to him."
Your power will be ineffective, Agamotto allows me to see through any illusion. Especially one by a low grade druid.
My Illusions will work, yours will not.

Spell of forgetfulness:
""Make me forget I'm fighting? Won't work, thanks to mental blocks, telepathy, and excellent control over my mind and body.""

Too bad youre insane, and cannot concentrait like you used to. You will forget.

All I have to do is wrap you into The Bands, and youre done.
Very simple, you can't break it, you cant break stranges shield, you can't concentrait due to your insanity, your magic is useless while i am in iron form. the end.

Dr. Druid is vulnerable to iron? No wonder he's dead.

The first thing i do after turning into iron is to creat the Rains of Raggadorr to distract you.

After that I then use the spell of forgetfulness, your mind is insane and old, you can't concentrait, you will start to forget even if it takes longer than usual.

In your stuper brought on by the spell I will make the most powerful spell possible of the Bands of Cyttorak, you cannot break them unless they are weilded by a magic that is weak.

His powers and all of his ancestors powers are nearly useless when iron is around, I turn myself into 100% iron, Druids powers are basically negated.

I might not be as strong(im class 100 though) as Supreme but i am as fast and as durable.

I wont fist fight you, I will simply use my magic to make your forget what you are doing i.e spell of forgetfullness, THEN you wont even struggle against the Unbreakable bands of Cyttorak.

Damn. Nice start from you both. I'm kinda wishing that I had longer to decide though...

This is a one page fight at most. I luckily have every single one of each of his characters weaknesses.

Druids powers are effected by iron-I have an Iron ball and chain i can become 100% iron.

Supreme vulnerability is Supremium AND MAGIC- I just happen to be the best magic user on earth.

Druids magic always has been sub par when compaired to Stranges, Druid can't do anything that Strange hasn't mastered and is 10x better at.

I keep having to make multiple posts because the dude wrote so much at once.....and most of it is wrong.

dammit man, paraphrase!

Insane you say? Is that your only defense? I'm insane with power is what your telling me? No.

""Hypnotize me? I'm a telepath and I to am a hypnotist. Won't work so well on me.""
True, but no where near the master of hypnotism as Dr Strange.

Multiple Body Illusion:
"I have this power too, won't affect me as much. I'll do the same to him."
Your power will be ineffective, Agamotto allows me to see through any illusion. Especially one by a low grade druid.
My Illusions will work, yours will not.

Unlike your character, I have true telepathic powers, something Strange has not. He utters spells and incantations to do things like that. I can use my telepathic powers to create temporary illusions confusing your character. Even with little knowledge of the nega bands, I use a little energy and make my illusions solid to confuse you even more. Have fun with that Eye/Orb of Agamotto. Meanwhile I'll be pelting you with energy blasts from my nega bands and my heat vision.

All I have to do is wrap you into The Bands, and youre done.
Very simple, you can't break it, you cant break stranges shield, you can't concentrait due to your insanity, your magic is useless while i am in iron form. the end.

I'm not defenseless while entrapped in your Bands... I can still hit you with a dose of heat vision that wouldn't feel to good. Thus the pain from the heat vision melting your skin off will throw of your concentration and loosen your grip on the Bands, thus allowing me to break free.

Do you have Supremium? No. Are you gonna transmute matter to create it? No. Do you have cosmic awareness to tell you what my weakess is? No.

I have cosmic awareness, even though not an expert, I notice your limitations. My speed is bolstered a little by the energy in my nega bands. Ethan's speed is already near light, just a little energy more will make him fast as you, maybe faster. I'm am gonna plow both my hands into you channeling enormous amounts of the combined energies I stored before the fight. You don't need to be an expert to expel energy, and I'll put it all into you. Overloading you causing you to explode and you will dissapate into the atomsphere. Sure your body will reform, but it takes time. If your even out of this fight for a few minutes, you lose, via TKO.

Insane? yep.
"As time passed however, his magic apparently began to corrupt him, and eventually he appeared to succumb to madness, taking the name Druid and operating out of New York. He was slain by the supervillain Nekra, she shot Druid in the head, and as he lay dying, Hellstorm informed him "You're a lunatic, a religious maniac, a bad idea. You should have been stamped out at birth. And, in the end, you're a failure.""

Druids magic has currupted his mind. He no longer is able to make rational decisions.

As for this:
"Unlike your character, I have true telepathic powers, something Strange has not. He utters spells and incantations to do things like that. I can use my telepathic powers to create temporary illusions confusing your character. Even with little knowledge of the nega bands, I use a little energy and make my illusions solid to confuse you even more. Have fun with that Eye/Orb of Agamotto. Meanwhile I'll be pelting you with energy blasts from my nega bands and my heat vision."

A true telepath means nothing when going against the eye of agamotto. I can read your mind with it and see through ANY illusion by ANYONE. Strange was able to see through CYTORRAKS Illusions with it. A druid isn't on par with Steve, much less Cyttorak.

My shield has taken blasts from Surfer and punches by an enraged Hulk, neither made any effect. Neither will your charming yet futile attempt to pelt it with energy blasts.

""I'm not defenseless while entrapped in your Bands... I can still hit you with a dose of heat vision that wouldn't feel to good. Thus the pain from the heat vision melting your skin off will throw of your concentration and loosen your grip on the Bands, thus allowing me to break free.""
Defensless? no, but you are in a stupor due to my spell, also heat vision will not go through my shield....Gladiators heat vision didn't Supremes wont either.

All i need is a few second incapacitation and I win.
You wont be able to move or break the Bands, your guy will be stuck for as long as Strange wills the Bands to remain.

Do i need supremium? no. Magic is Supremes next biggest weakness, and i have an ass load of that.

You say you will hit me with your hands?? Please, your guy will never get past my shield to touch me.

Your guy will be in a stupor via the spell of forgetfullness that you cannot resist totally, you will lose concentration due to insanity AND stupor.
Leaving me time enough with my lightspeed to wrap you in the Unbreakable Bands of Cyttorak.

I win.
